Topic: milking the same cow again and again? Forum: Bonus Whores

Gnoming causes problems for the affiliate and others. I hope all of us can appreciate the risk BW management runs if they allowed 'how to gnome' posts. Keep in mind the administrators are paid staff and/or business owners - if the business gets screwed up it costs them big time.

Gnoming has its risks for the player as well. Like most crimes (yes, gnoming is a crime - it is called fraud.), you often get away with the first one. But it can become a bad habit. The signup bonuses are generally much richer than on-going bonuses - making it temping to redo the 5X signup many times rather than wait for the occational 10X reload. Sooner or later you will make an error and get caught if you make enough gnome accounts. (Neteller might also catch you as well if you are setting up multiple Neteller accounts.)

I expect the poker rooms share the identies of 'crooks and frauds' with each other. Several high profile situtations have occured in the past where sites did exactly that. Gnoming can be a risk to your entire bankroll and in the worst cases even your ability to play on-line poker.

I think gnoming it is -EV. Obvously other people do not agree. (I also think it is wrong, but that is a different post.)
